Microsoft Word (Windows)

If you download and install Word from your Edgewood University account, the RefWorks add-in should automatically be installed.  Look for "RCM" in the top menu.

If your copy of Word does not have the add-in, you can add it in two ways:

1. Go to the link in the Microsoft AppSource for RefWorks Citation Manager, and click Get it now.

    or

2. In MS Word, click Add-ins at the end of the Home menu. Search for "RefWorks" then click Add.

Once added, click RCM from the top menu and sign in to your RefWorks account.

Similar to Windows above, click Insert > Add-ins > search for "RefWorks" > click Add.

Once installed, click RCM from the top menu and sign in to your RefWorks Account.
